Fencing
(Written before the Merseyside, there is further fencing talk to come)
I am disturbed by my ranking, not because it's bad, but because it's worryingly good. Given that I've only done one competition this season, and that one was a low points scoring one, I should be a lot lower down the rankings than I am. Which makes me worry that the "big" opens aren't any more and then I worry about the general decline in participation in women's foil, something I've noticed happening. Either that or it's becoming v. Southern based again, which could be bad for spreading foil across the land.
